Deep burn, feel so good.

NOT! Ok, it does feel good afterwards but during DAMN. My quads were/are burning. Also, it's really hard to drive a stick shift after a weighted, high rep squat WOD. LOL

WOD
Strict Press
5-5-5-5-5
Then...
3 minutes max Squats at 225/135
3 minutes Rest
2 minutes max squats at 135/95
2 minutes rest
1 minute max squats at 65/45
1 minute rest
30 seconds max air squats
RESULTS
45-55-65 (F@5)-65 (f@5)
#115: 26 reps
#65: 38
#45: 26
Air squats: 24

ANALYSIS
The strict press is the most frustrating lift...  I feel weak and all I want to do is dip and drive!  In any case, I could have gotten that 5th rep up but both times I used my rebound bounce (wisely) to get each rep up and then paused at the bottom before my 5th rep.  The pause is killer.  Not sure why I did that twice, since I saw the affect after the first set of 65. Oh well.
Squats were hard but fun. The first 10 of each set were easy and then all of a sudden the reps became stickyyyyy.  My quads are still burning - whether straight or bent.  Tomorrow should be awesome.  I love squats.
